Were talking 7,200 lb's for a 2wd and probably 8,300 Lb's for a 4WD, fast should not be in the vocabulary when talking about these trucks. Maybe a word like quick, or something like >>>>, heck I don't know, but fast, no, they shouldn't be fast. I know, some ARE, but really should they be, I'm glad mine isn't. The word scary would come to my mind if it was.

ditch the 3:73's...
i hear ur pain my V10 is spinning those same gears in teh pumpkins and since moving to 35"s my truck is now really suffering...
the drop in power off the line and driving anytime below 2000RPM is really noticable...
if u decide to regear dont even consider anything below 4:30... 4:30s would be the minimum u should seek..
the jump to say 4:10s wouldnt make u happy im sure...
